| catss's Full Review: Oxy Balance Deep Pore Cleansing Pads |
Remember the commercials that went "Oxycute Em!" Those commercials turned me onto the Oxy line several years ago, and I have been completely impressed ever since - so much so that Oxy was the first product I went out and purchased when my daughter, 12, began to break out.
I've tried many products over the years, having had acne as a teenager and well into adulthood, and Oxy came out on top. I recently picked up these Oxy Balance Deep Pore Cleansing pads, and I knew they'd probably be good, since I trusted the Oxy line anyway; but just how good? Turns out, they're great!
Nothing beats a good Oxy wash and pat dry, but for extra cleansing and protection, the cleansing pads are not only easy, but powerful too. I have even had overnight success on many occasions.
Myself, I don't get uncontrollable breakouts any longer, but my 12-year-old daughter is now having the beginnings of the same pimple problems I had way back when - breakouts on her forehead and chin, around her nose, and all over her upper back.
For a girl entering junior high, where opinions of others and how you feel about yourself are so important, trying to enjoy an afternoon with friends in and around the pool can be extremely uncomfortable when you're trying to keep your back full of pimples out of sight. I can recall many times when I just kept my t-shirt on at the beach, or bought a nice tank top only to discover I didn't want to wear it because of the "zits" that would show on my back.
Nothing is probably more troublesome, though, than those pesky face pimples. I had more than my fair share, and I think my daughter will be in for the same battle I had. Fortunately, she will be much better armed for the fight than I was at her age. That great feeling, on a perfect-hair day, wearing your favourite outfit for shopping plans with friends that afternoon, can be struck totally down when you look into the mirror and see a face full of zits. Trying to cover up with make-up only does so much.
No product is miraculous, but Oxy products are the best I've found, and these cleansing pads are great. After two evenings of running them over her back, my daughter's back began to clear up. No new break outs were appearing, and the old ones were obviously drying up and going away.
Her face had similar results. (Now only if she'd keep her hands away!) She washes with Oxy face wash every morning and evening, and she uses the oxy deep cleansing pads at noon.
The pads have a strong alcohol type smell, and I like it - it smells like it's working for you!
Oxy Deep Cleansing Pads are also great to take with you when you're away from home. When we go camping, I wrap a few in plastic wrap and put them in a sandwich bag. They stay moist and are so quick and easy.
Just try 'em! You'll be glad you did.
